OC3D Review XSPC Rasa 750 RS360 WaterCooling Kit

[tinytomlogan]

Thanks to www.specialtech.co.uk we will be taking a look at the RS360 kit to see how it fairs against the best aircooled heatsinks available today.

another nice vid Tom.

What fan speed did u use for tests?

 

[cbiltsouris]

Tom how would you compare this to a a fully aftermarket setup?

 

[Papa J]

I'm saving up for the kit with the RX360 radiator

 

[Junglerog]

That is quite awsome. I've been asking a while back about a 240 rad (thickness to be exact) on the forum not succesfuly and here is my answer. Thin rad can perform quite well, well enough for my needs for sure. I have checked specialtech website and they also have a 240 rad set. I will most deifnately be getting it for my tiny case built. Thanks!

I say in the video quite a bit and explain why - 12v.

Slightly loose in the question there dude, ie thats like asking how good is a stick or ram compaired to this one.

Loops will perform differently compaired to the parts inside wont they

This kit blatantly keeps the temps low, bigger/thicker rads will allow larger overheads for GPU's, and better pumps will allow a higher head for more restrictive or just more blocks. Its not rocket science to work it out tbh.

Nice review, puts things into perspective nicely.

I'm still a water-wuss tho. Probably cos I mess about too much.

 

[alicarve]

makes me want to buy it, especially to replace my TT frio but I told myself I wouldn't buy any new parts for a bit

Its the same with most things tbh dude, if you are methodical and carefull its really not that bad, once you have taken the first step all your worries soon fade away.

Thats a good watercooling kit. It would fit perfectly into my Obsidian 800D. Although I am gone off watercooling since I had wtaercooling in my rig two years ago and there was too much work keeping the water clean and I was always nervous that the kit might spring a leak.

By the way arent those CPU temperatures too high. I know the temps arent for a cpu that will do 24/7 but I wouldnt even think of pushing a CPU above 60 celcius in case it would damage the CPU.

Temps are fine dude

Infact at those clocks they are epic

 

[steve30x]

When I was overclocking my I5 760 I was afraid to push my CPU above 60C because I am not sure what a safe temperature for it is. I might reconsider buying this watercooling kit though. I should hit over 4GHZ with that kit.

 

[SnW]

That price is quite good as well right ?

or am i thinking in the wrong amount

Solid review again my Folding ADMIN

Max temp for the i7-950 as specified by Intel ([sup]T[/sup][sub]CASE[/sub]) is 67.9 degrees. So some of those are a little high, though, realistically speaking...anywhere around 80-90 degrees for the 950 should be fine (load).

Seeing this review has indeed to me giving the bug back aswell.

I am looking now for a new cooler. That bug is giving you the xtra mile and your rig is so much more personal.

I must admit I never heard of the company SPecialTech but from were I look at it is a nice kit.

I must look for a retailer in Holland were they sell it.

Another great review as always.

Thanks for brining the bug back although I doubt the misses will like it.

me runs out gonna spend some cash tomorrow.

Edit : OKe looked it up, Special Tech is something specific for England.

However the kits they sell from EK are for sall here aswell.

I know mate, but I was wondering what speed fans have had?

 

[chudley]

Always been interested in WC but not had the option, however if I do get the chance this may just be the one. @ 9 mins - so to sum up lol! As Mr T says "Quit your Jabba Jabba" nice recovery at the end though

Yes I watch all your vids to the end, just to see if you use your thumbs

Nice review Tom

I've water-cooled for the last few years and wouldn't go back to air for anything.

I know it's more expensive, but it's not just about the bling or the bragging rights. if done properly there are real world benefits performance wise from water-cooling. I have the 240 kit from XSPC I borrowed from work and was gonna compare it to my custom kit.

well done.

 

[Stryker64]

What would perform better, this radiator or a 2x120mm RX series radiator (The thicker ones)

 

[BARRYWB]

Nice one TTL.

I have never done w/c but am now prepared to have at it. Just a couple of points

1/ What are the best practices on tubing length/bends?

2/ Is the bleeding process (not being rude) more difficult in a system with the pump/res: up higher? Ie in the drive bays.
